A discrete event Simulator for peer-to-peer network modeling. Speer is made for students, researchers and hobbyists. It's goal is to allow them to easily implement, simulate and study peer to peer networks.
It combines event-driven simulations with cycle-based concepts and allows parallelization by taking advantage of Go’s concurrency features.
After getting Golang >= 1.6 and setting $GOPATH, install Speer via:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/danalex97/Speer/master/install.sh | bash
